        HP offers "green" incentive to move to Pocket PC

        Hewlett-Packard is offering customers a cash-back offer of $50 or more toward the purchase of a new HP iPAQ h1940 or h2210 series Pocket PC when they trade in an old personal digital assistant through July 10, 2004.


        The program enables customers to dispose of old equipment in an environmentally responsible manner at little or no cost.

        Products returned through the trade-in program are evaluated for fair market value, in the used or secondary marketplace, by Market Velocity, HP's trade-in solution provider. Market Velocity specializes in the remarketing and disposal of used equipment. The minimum refund is $50 -- even if the device has no market value. If the value is more than $50, the customer will receive a refund equal to the fair market value.

        Mac-based Palm users who trade in old equipment through the program can receive an additional cash-back offer toward the purchase of PocketMac, the original Mac-to-Pocket PC sync solution.

        Full details on HP's trade-in program are available here.
